Ohio Rev. Code § 4781 § 4781.57
Duty of park operator to ensure homes and facilities properly maintained.
Operative Text
The park operator of a manufactured home park shall ensure that all manufactured home park buildings, lots, streets, walkways, manufactured homes, mobile homes, and other facilities located in the manufactured home park shall be maintained in a condition satisfactory to the division at all times.
Under Ohio Rev. Code § 4781.57, operators of manufactured home parks are required to keep all structures, lots, streets, walkways, homes, and other facilities within the park in a condition that meets the standards set by the Ohio Division of Manufactured Homes. This rule applies continuously — not just at the time of inspection — and covers the full range of physical elements within the park. The provision establishes an ongoing maintenance obligation rather than a one-time compliance threshold.

Ohio Rev. Code § 4781.57 places a continuous maintenance obligation on park operators, meaning that compliant operators generally conduct regular inspections of buildings, lots, streets, walkways, and other park facilities to ensure conditions remain satisfactory to the Ohio Division of Manufactured Homes at all times. Operators typically document maintenance activities and address deficiencies promptly, since the standard is ongoing rather than periodic. Keeping records of repairs and inspections can help demonstrate that the park is being managed in accordance with this provision.

Ohio Rev.

Tenants who believe their park is not meeting this standard may consider filing a complaint with the Ohio Division of Manufactured Homes, which has oversight authority under this chapter. Tenant-rights organizations familiar with Ohio manufactured housing law can help residents understand what options may be available when maintenance concerns arise.
